Volume II, carries Dr. Hergenröther’s inquiry from first principles into the decisive contests between the papacy and temporal powers, beginning with the Holy Roman Empire and the conflict of Frederick II with the Church. It then traces the popes’ relations with the Italian kingdoms, the quarrel of Boniface VIII with Philip the Fairs, and the meaning of the Bull “Unam Sanctam.”
The volume also examines the gifts of land attributed to the popes, the Donations of Constantine, the doctrine of ecclesiastical jurisdiction, and the punishment of heresy down to the Inquisition. Its survey extends to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, where liberty of conscience, oaths of allegiance, religious wars, treaties, and concordats are weighed against the alleged usurpation of the Holy See.
Thus, the second volume moves from medieval precedents to modern controversies, giving the reader a continuous historical defense of Catholic teaching on Church and State.
